Khatam Kari as a Iranian Souvenir

Khatam Kari

The Khatam Kari is one of the most famous wooden handicrafts in Iran. Khatam is a combination of regular polygons with different faces, which are formed using various materials in different colors and are considered to be precise handicrafts that require the production and construction of it to be very careful. The Khatam Kari artists, combining wood, metal and bone, create works that obscure the eyes of any viewer. These works are usually decorated with beautifully decorated jewelry boxes, photo frames, backgammon, etc. Foreign tourists often purchase Iranian Khatam Kari as souvenirs and gifts for their friends and family. The Naqsh e Jahan square of Isfahan and the Vakil Bazaar is a good place to buy this art.
